-- 意大利联合信贷银行(UniCredit,UCG.MI)周一公布了针对德国商业银行(Commerzbank,CBK.F)的转型计划,概述了合并后的潜在益处。德国商业银行驳斥该计划是“持续的敌意策略和误导性描述”。 意大利联合信贷银行通过股份持有德国商业银行26.04%的投票权,并通过其他金融工具持有3.31%的投票权。该公司提出了一项名为“解锁”(Unlocked)的新方案,旨在使德国商业银行重新聚焦其核心市场德国和波兰,而非继续执行其“动量”(Momentum)计划下“激进且风险更高”的国际扩张策略。联合信贷银行表示,新方案将优先考虑德国中小企业和家族企业,加大对一线业务、技术和人工智能应用的投资,同时致力于提高非核心国际网络、高管管理费用、运营等方面的效率。 意大利联合信贷银行表示,在“解锁”(Unlocked)战略下,德国商业银行到2028年净利润有望达到51亿欧元,高于此前市场普遍预期的“动量”(Momentum)战略下的45亿欧元。该行还指出,德国商业银行“准备不足”,难以与美国企业和金融科技公司在德国市场展开竞争。此外,该行过度关注短期业绩,并部分依赖有利的利率环境和非核心国际业务增长来抵消2025年高于预期目标的运营支出。 意大利联合信贷银行还反驳了德国商业银行关于其收购要约溢价不足的说法,指出市场普遍预期合并后的业绩将比“动量”战略下高出5%以上。该行补充说,德国商业银行已拒绝就溢价问题进行进一步讨论,也拒绝就交易细节进行任何接触。 德国商业银行驳斥了这些说法,称该提议仍未包含“市场标准”溢价,并称该转型方案是“试图瓦解”其商业模式的投机之举,此前,意大利联合信贷银行已主动增持股份超过18个月。 “意大利联合信贷银行今天提出的方案并非令人信服的合并方案。这是直接竞争对手提出的重组方案,旨在削弱德国中小企业在国际业务和贸易融资方面的核心价值链。该方案包括以德国联合抵押银行(HypoVereinsbank)为蓝本压缩德国商业银行的成本基础,并使其偏离构成该行竞争地位的中小企业业务。与此同时,意大利联合信贷银行并未透露任何关于其实际合并计划的实质性新细节——无论是具体的操作手段、实现成本还是时间表。德国商业银行已多次要求提供这些信息,但至今仍遭到拒绝。”德国商业银行辩称。 该贷款机构补充说,任何潜在的组合收益可能都需要“几年时间”才能实现,实施可能会在 2029 年至 2030 年间开始,并表示将于 5 月 8 日公布第一季度业绩的同时,提出更新后的目标和 2030 年战略。
